The invention discloses a container, comprising a base and a side panel, the base or the side panel is provided with a discharging port, the discharging port is provided with a covering door, and the covering door is connected to the base or the side panel through a connecting device, wherein the connection device includes a transmission member and an elastic member. During the opening or closing process of the covering door, the transmission member can be driven to move outwardly, so that the elastic member is compressed. When the covering door is completely opened or closed, the elastic member springs back and drives the transmission member to move inwardly, the covering door automatically keeps open or closed. The overall structure of the invention is novel and reliable, and the operation is simple, and it is not necessary to confirm whether the covering door is attracted in place during the opening or closing process of the covering door, which can effectively avoid human operation errors.

A shipping container is configured to transport goods from a distribution center, to a retail location, and onto the sales floor of the retail location. The shipping container glides on wheels and is stackable. The shipping container is configured to receive forklift forks from multiple sides. At least one of the channels includes a surrounding framework to safeguard against tilting. The lid is selectively mountable in two orientations to close the container or to provide handles for propelling and/or steering the shipping container. An expandable storage location for empty packaging is provided at an exterior of the shipping container.

An isolation shroud adapted to enclose and protect a medical gas tank against contamination, which is further replaceable between patients to prevent cross-contamination, comprising a sleeve portion with an open end and interior space, and a hood portion with a hood lower opening, adapted to enclose the body and upper end of the medical gas tank respectively. The hood portion is attached to and is continuous with a sleeve order surrounding the open end of the sleeve portion, allowing the open end and sleeve border to be simultaneously lifted to enclose the body and open end respectively. The hood portion further has a hood front opening, allowing a hose to extend from the medical gas tank outwardly through either the hood lower opening or front opening. A fastener attached to the hood portion further allows the hood lower opening to be sealed against the sleeve portion.

The current invention relates to a transport container comprising a frame and a flexible compartment system suspended within said frame, wherein the frame has at least one open side, wherein the transport container has a cover that is movable between closed and open configurations for selectively covering and uncovering said open side, and wherein the frame is further provided with at least one elongate suspension member that extends along a side edge of said open side, and fitted through a sleeve formed by the compartment system. In particular, the cover extends in its closed configuration along said sleeve, contacting the sleeve. The invention further provides a method of assembling transport containers.

This application discloses a foldable container. The foldable container has a base and two pairs of opposite side plates. The side plates are hinged to the base. Adjacent side plates are capable of being engaged with each other through engaging structures and being locked with each other through locking mechanisms to form a container body. At least one of the side plates is arranged such that when being unlocked from an adjacent side plate, it can be rotated towards the inner side of the container body and can be also rotated towards the outer side of the container body relative to the base. At least one side plate of the foldable container in this application can be rotated towards the inner side of the container body and can be rotated towards the outer side of the container body, and can be removed after being rotated, thereby greatly facilitate accessing goods, especially bulky and heavy goods.

An apparatus and methods are described for an improved pallet for the transportation and storage of goods. The pallet disclosed herein has four walls that are at least 4 inches tall that may be lowered to allow the efficient removal of goods off of the pallet. The wall may be used as a ramp to slide the goods off of the pallet. The walls may be locked in an upright position to ensure the goods are secured onto the pallet during transport or storage. When the goods are needed, one or more of the walls may be unlocked and lowered so that the goods do not have to be lifted over the wall to unload the goods from the pallet. The wall may also be in the lowered position to allow goods to be loaded onto to the pallet without having to lift them up and over the wall. The pallet also consists of nine feet that are at least 4 inches high, which minimizes the risk of forks missing the pallet opening when the forks are inserted to move the pallet.

An intermediate bulk container (IBC) system comprising a base and walls, and having an interior space. The system comprises a drain in the base or in a wall, a liner bag having a liner bag drain couplable to the drain in the base or in a wall, and a door coupled to the wall by a hinge and shaped to cover an opening in the wall. The opening extends from a top of the wall. The hinge is coupled to the door to allow the door to rotate into the interior space. A stop prevents the door from rotating beyond the wall. The system may be used by rotating the door into the interior space to expose the opening, reaching through the opening and operatively coupling the liner bag drain at the drain in the base or in a wall, and rotating the door to cover the opening.

A container includes a wall extending upward from a base. The wall includes a frame and a first wall portion pivotably connected to the frame. The wall further includes a latch selectively connecting the first wall portion to the frame. The latch is movable vertically relative to the frame to selectively release the first wall portion from the frame.

A food dispenser for use by manual-dexterity challenged people is disclosed. The dispenser comprises a hollow cylindrical base, a container for containing a plurality of select food items, a cylindrical cap disposed through a hollow cylindrical collar mounted atop the container and joined thereto by interfitting surface portions. The dispenser includes a piston and a compression spring disposed in an interior region of the base and abutting a portion of the base and the piston for biasing the piston and base apart and for maintaining a predetermined spacing therebetween.

Product transport containers are disclosed. Such containers can provide one or more advantages compared to existing containers. For example, product transport containers described herein can maintain a product at a desired temperature for an extended period of time, including without the use of an active heating or cooling component. Such product transport containers described herein may also provide improved breathability, thermal insulation, and/or mechanical strength or dimensional stability. Such containers can include a plurality of walls defining an interior volume and a selectively openable side permitting movement of the product into and out of the interior volume of the container. The walls can be formed from a thermoformed non-woven fabric.
